Inspiration
We were inspired by visual novels. The minigames were based on the ones in other games that build on the story and create a dynamic playing experience.
What it does
Our app walks you through the daily challenges that come with no access to clean water. It is informative and creates a sense of empathy as you walk through life with those struggles.
How I built it
We come up with the idea and planned the screens, as well as researched the information needed to create a realistic experience. I coded it with Code.org
Challenges I ran into
Since we are not familiar with coding, there was a steep learning curve and moments where it was frustrating and confusing; it seemed impossible. The time management was tough. Between schoolwork, extracurriculars, and creating this app, we definitely could've used more organizing.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Both of the games were the hardest part, yet they were the most rewarding. They have a lot of work poured into them and it was hard to stop myself from adding even more features for the sake of time.
What I learned
We learned a lot of coding skills, technical, and communication skills.
What's next for H204U
We hope to partner up with some companies to distribute water to those in need, as well as continue spreading awareness about these issues. We want to expand on our stories and create a community that can advocate for the changes needed so water can be available for everyone.
